Country: | I don't know Lanc., The Okha you're guaranteed death 100% (You'll have a great flight though). The Natter I would give 99.997% and the -163 about 55%. I guess it depends how quick you want to die

I rate it 50% if you were just going to fly it, 100% if you were planning on crashing into something. If I was a Typhoon pilot, I would love to shoot one of those down!
